Winter Sparrow Nov 2019
She wore pearls in her ears.
Wings in her eyes.
Black all over.
Sort of a Victorian Lady.

She stunned the room she walked into.
Her confidence radiated and bounced off the walls.
All eyes were on her.
Well, at least mine surely are.

Time to let go.
The wall's up on her side...
I'm trying to building mine.
Brick by ******* brick...slowly but sadly, surely.

Such a Goddess.
Such a magnificent creature.
Such a pearl.
Only class wear pearls at that age.

How do you **** a muse?
Does it hurt more to not write or to write?
Where did all my strength go.
Why did I expose myself?

Maybe I'm addicted to the fall.
I love the struggle.
I love that she said she loves me.
But its all wrong...right?

Its time to fade into the dark.
Let her go. That's it...
Turn off the lighthouse.
Let the dream crumble.

Burn the whole kingdom to the ground.
Let these flames set them free.
Give them reason to start afresh.
Give them reason to run away from me.

Let the flames lead them to the forest.
The forest secretly owned by the law.
The same law that destroyed my kingdom, my home.
And though they might not know it, or even believe it.

I'll protect them.
I'll keep them safe.
I'll be there, in the shadows.
Until they come to realise, why it was done.

A plague has besieged the city.
And Id rather drive you out
Then let a plague bestow upon you.
I promised to protect you.

For sometimes, you need to burn down bridges;
Bridges you no longer think can hold the both of us.
Be safe my love.
Forgive me.

I may have lost my kingdom.
My subjects.
My love.
But I can never lose my crown.

Put down your weapons.
Hold all fire.
Lower the black.
Weight the anchor.

I lost the fight.
Turned my own canons on me.
I destroyed my own ship.
To give her safe passage.

And now, I watch you sail away.
Watch you leave into the sun set with someone else.
Something I expected.
But not what I wanted.

There be no wind in my sails.
No character in my flag.
No cheer among my men.
What I possess is a small red gem.

I hold it close to me;
While I wait.
Wait for the wind to pick up.
Wait for my sails to fill up with wind.

I walked in the dead of night.
Only the moon could guide me.
Show me where i am headed.
And the path i chose tonight led me to that green light.

I stood at the edge, felt the sea rash on my face.
I wanted it to consume me.
Let me be one with the waves.
Leave for a while.

But then...
I screamed my lungs out.
I let the anger out.
Only to let it bounce back in.

Love is a painful experience.
And when you hurt....you don't know how it happened.
For what sound does the heart make when it breaks?
Its as quiet as a dragons flap, yet as powerful as the wind he creates.

How could i fight for something that isn't mine?
Why am I protecting something that I can't have.
I want to win her heart.
I want to hold her tight.

I'm fighting myself to hold back.
But darling its so hard because its you.
You're a 160%...
Where can i find that?

You're worth the fight.
You're worth the punches.
You're worth the damage.
You're worth the struggle.

If you are not mine, and I am giving you this much.
Fighting this much,
Imagine if you were mine, how much more would i fight?
How much more would I give?

I am oblivious to my own limits.
I am oblivious to how this will end.
But whatever the choice, ill stand beside you.
Ill smile from a distance or hold you tight and kiss you.

You're worth the fight.
Wherever this road may lead us.
Everything ends in a heartbreak;
Some heart breaks are more worth it then others!

Just like this.

You're tired.
The skies have turned red.
The rivers have started flowing.
The seasons have changed.

Its ok to do things for yourself.
To be wanted, its a desire,
To fulfill it is a need.
But this Robin has your back.

If I could live on your shoulder to make sure you're fine.
To make sure you're safe and feeling as you should.
I would stay there.
You're a gem! If only you were my gem


Don't let anyone or yourself put you down.
Don't let anyone fake away your throne.
Cry if you have to...
Let go. Don't lose yourself.

The curiosity is ******.
Hell hath no fury like this storm.
Look outside and you'll see...

The winds uprooting trees.
The thunders shaking mountains.
The rain is drowning titans.

I want to be in the middle of it all.
I could live through it.
I could let it consume me.

But I wouldn't run away from it.
Not while there is still wind in my sails.
Not while theres still passion in your eyes.

Whatever the result.
Go through it or not.
Either way its worth it.

The storm will not be my enemy.
The storm is an experience.
The storm will help me find who I am.

You're not the enemy here.
You're no villain.
I've come to believe no one is in this situation.

We are two people who fell into a storm.
Whatever you do...
Please don't ride the wind without me.
